I hope those who make up the occasional and daily ridership, appreciate how truly fortunate they are.

In the mostly quiet, bucolic, and serene atmosphere of Virginia’s Eastern Shore, to have a means of public conveyance to transport, from nearly the Maryland state line all the way to the southern terminus, 90 miles for a mere 1.50 is unheard of. Albeit transfers along the way, but to ride from Cape Charles to Walmart, a one-segment round trip for 1.00 is a phenomenon not found anywhere. Even the tightest of budgets, cannot logically begrudge, a fare per ride of Fifty cents?

The accommodating professionalism of nearly all the drivers, safely navigating the second most dangerous highway in The Virginia Commonwealth, without incident, while conveying a positive attitude. Itself, truly worthy of commendation.

Making trips to AutoZone, I would have been stranded without Star Transit. The times I called dispatch to verify times and connections; representatives were patient, accommodating and it was of comfort, to hear their voice.

Some of the nicest people I have encountered were patrons of Star Transit. The interaction with several the drivers was heartwarming to witness. One, out for a spell, on return, was greeted with warmth by every passenger.

The lives of others; our interactions with, as we traverse our time here, is paramount!

To greet a person, to exchange a salutation should be effortless. Yet, to some, it seems an ever-increasing alien proposition. Rejoice, share in some of the most spectacular vistas the nation has to offer, be grateful for the services afforded and enjoy being a patron aboard Star Transit.

Let’s not forget to Thank our County Supervisors for working with Star Transit to create this Transportation system. They recognized a need and found an answer. If you have access to a route and need a ride, you can certainly find a bargain of a ride.

Amen Jack Trump. We are very fortunate to have such a good bus system and have our Supervisors, especially Granville Hogg, to thank for getting it going and expanding it to the southern tip of Northampton county. Can’t buy almost anything for fifty cents or a buck any more but you can get a ride from Cape Charles all the way up to Walmart for that. Truly amazing!

The bus driver for the special needs bus ran the stop sign on Plum
& Madison at (conservative estimate) 50 mph and almost killed me in my golf cart. My neighbor witnessed it. We called the State Administration. They could not have cared less.
